This is a photo of lupines blooming in the spring on a hillside below a row of oak trees, digitally enhanced with painterly type effects to create a colorful impressionist landscape piece with contrasting colors, light and shade.

I took this photo with the first digital SLR I ever purchased, way back in 2005. Most cameras I've had over the years I've sold off, but this one I held onto. And though the body shows clear signs of wear, the important bits still work. I take it off the shelf and shoot some frames with it whenever I'm feeling nostalgic.
But last night I wanted to put this old camera through some more serious paces -- what would it be like to shoot it the same way I've been shooting my behemoth GFX and cutting-edge Nikon Z? I put a 24mm pancake lens on the thing and placed it on a tripod and walked around some northern bits of Santa Clara.
And here's the results. There's all the things you'd expect: fewer megapixels, less sharpness, more grain, less information in the shadows and highlights. But the overall photo? From the thumbnail alone, I don't know if I'd be able to tell the difference.
The biggest difference by far was the experience of actually shooting the photos -- that's when I was really feeling the two decades of technology. Composing, focusing, exposing are all so much more difficult with the Digital Rebel than with new cameras. The meter is easily overwhelmed by bright light sources, focus is a guessing game, reviewing images practically pointless on the tiny little screen that doesn't even show you the actual RAW file anyway, and composing harkening back to the old film days where "what you see is only sort of what you get".
I don't think any of this is a profound revelation -- it all seems kind of obvious in retrospect. But it was fun to do anyway, and as I edit through the shots I'll post them up here to share them with you. This one might've been my favorite from the night.

tiene el pelo lleno de piernas,
la cerveza de latas,
y la inspiración
llena de cabezas.
Hay un humo
lleno de narices
y un insulto
lleno de diálogos.
Hay un verso
lleno de poetas
y un esperma
lleno de orgasmos.
Tienes la basura
llena de ojos,
tienes la envidia
llena de pensamientos.
Tengo la tristeza
llena de memoria.
caray! tienes la sangre
llena, llena de cuerpos.
( M. Rosenzvit )

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️❤️❤️
A shot I took for my work's website.
I will actually upload some more film stuff in a day or day. i've just spent a load on calibration hardware/software, grey cards and scanner targets in the last week so i can colour manage my workflow (i'm starting to produce giclée prints for sale and i need to make sure that the colours in my mac are the ones that come back from the print shop). once i'm all tweaked, the film fun can resume!
